The MoA Week In Review – OT 2025-149

DJT is a genius.
Not only is he making certain the decolonisation and an end to the hundred year travesty of the Balfour Declaration and the Illegal Apartheid Entity.
How else can he ensure that his kids won’t be subjected to blackmail and threats in their future?
He is also going to demilitarise West Asia and its satraps of several centuries by having ALL their bases bombed to shit.
Along with the attempts to take Crimea for centuries longer.
That’s what I call retreat and a collapse of empire.
Also he ensures that the ziofascists who have a hold on him and every single other US politician will become nullified because of the writ large Epstein scandal.
The voters will have their say. If allowed.
I mean who else could have dragged this can of worms out into the open for the WHOLE world to see in all its gory crawling detail?
The Ziofascists are going down with him. It’s brave.
A genius I tell you 😉

Shahanshah of Iran: I will have to put all the New York Times articles written on this subject and draw the conclusion. You can put this to the computer and it will answer you.
Mike (the snake) Wallace: What you are saying is yes, you do believe.
Shahanshah of Iran: Well. Let’s wait for the answer of the computer
Mike (the snake) Wallace: Washington Post?
Shahanshah of Iran: The same.
Mike (the snake( Wallace: The networks?
Shanhanshah of Iran: Less.

Dear low spirited citizens of western countries: I appeal to you, do not be downhearted when the heroes of our battles turn on you and say that you are stupid and that you do not know what is going on. What is happening is not your fault, and if you are clueless that is not your fault.
You are not stupid. You are not ignorant. It is your enemies who are stupid and ignorant because they are not going to win, even if they have temporary power to blind you, to make you feel helpless. That is not okay. That is not right. Even as you are, you are a force against them. Even as you are you stand witness to what they have done to achieve their temporary ‘greatness’. Even seemingly unable to affect what is happening, what is going to happen, you matter. Your existence, just that, indicts THEM .
It is those who know who are judged. We who only see dimly are not to blame. We who have tried to educate ourselves and found instead we were burdened with debt, harassed by the moneychangers, weakened by illnesses, discouraged by continual ‘examples’ of depravity and greed, low income, loss of a meaningful employment,hope for the future for ourselves and for our children — we are not to blame. It is those who know and do that are deserving to be judged.
Blessed are the poor in spirit.
I have heard that those who first voted for Obama were fools. They were not fools.
Obama was, and is, the fool. We who do not know, and who know that we do not know, are far, far wiser than he.
Do not die disheartened. There is going to come a day. This will not last.

Today sees the first Treasury auction of US debt post Trump’s BBB spending bill and ongoing Tariff follies.
On deck is $215B pushing on the short end and $38B of 10Y notes.
The 10Y notes are a bellwether. Bessent and Lutnick are doubtlessly whipping their co-conspirators into line.

Read this from The Register
Scholars sneaking phrases into papers to fool AI reviewers
https://www.theregister.com/2025/07/07/scholars_try_to_fool_llm_reviewers/
quote

A handful of international computer science researchers appear to be trying to influence AI reviews with a new class of prompt injection attack.
Nikkei Asia has found that research papers from at least 14 different academic institutions in eight countries contain hidden text that instructs any AI model summarizing the work to focus on flattering comments.
Nikkei looked at English language preprints – manuscripts that have yet to receive formal peer review – on ArXiv, an online distribution platform for academic work. The publication found 17 academic papers that contain text styled to be invisible – presented as a white font on a white background or with extremely tiny fonts – that would nonetheless be ingested and processed by an AI model scanning the page.
One of the papers Nikkei identified was scheduled to appear at the International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML) later this month, but reportedly will be withdrawn. Representatives of ICML did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

If one is jaded enough about the AI hype you could say this sort of effort is an improvement in outcomes…../s

@ too scents | Jul 9 2025 6:03 utc | 213 with the market updates…thx
The thing about prices is that they will only go up in increments of the biggest swing in costs….a ratchet effect…things will get ugly faster
I keep telling friends that since 1971 we have lost real price discovery because we have no value base to work with and until/unless we get back to a value based money, price will be what marketing/sales say it is.
When do the parts start flying off?

🇨🇳⚡ China Unveils Mosquito-Sized War Robot
China has revealed a tiny drone, the size of a mosquito, designed for covert military missions and intelligence gathering. Developed by researchers at the National University of Defense Technology, the drone is intended for reconnaissance and espionage in sensitive and complex areas.
The drone boasts a unique design, featuring two wings resembling leaves that flap like insect wings, along with three thin legs to assist in landing or perching.
A student involved in the project told Chinese television that he holds a “mosquito-like robot” in his hand, adding that the drone is ideal for special missions and collecting battlefield intelligence.
Equipped with highly precise systems, including miniature batteries, sensors, and an intelligent control system, the drone can fly undetected, making it valuable for modern warfare and espionage operations.
Despite its small size, its design poses significant challenges, as miniaturizing intricate components without compromising efficiency is no easy feat, according to specialized tech websites.

Victorian Yarrook Truth Commission Report. The result of four years of work on the Genocide of the Indeginous population of Victoria, Australia.
Opening sentences written by Daniel James;
We walk on stolen land: a truth etched into the soil, in the rivers that have carried stories of a people for millennia, and in the skies that have witnessed it all. The scars of colonial invasion—its massacres, violence and relentless erasure—are not confined to the past. They reside in the present, shaping the lives of First Peoples in
Victoria today. The land that once nurtured the Gunditjmara, Wurundjeri, Yorta Yorta, Latji Latji and all of the nations that knew home in this place now called Victoria is crisscrossed with legacies of injustice; a painful inheritance that refuses to fade.

This is not merely history; it is a living reality.

Colonial systems have shapeshifted but never relinquished their grip. From the first footsteps of invaders to the halls of contemporary power, the machinery of dispossession ersists. Its imprint is visible in land stolen and sold, in laws that segregated and silenced, in families torn apart, and in systems that dehumanised
and oppressed.
This is more than an account of history—it is a reclamation. For the first time, the voices of Victoria’s First Peoples are entering the public record on their own terms, with oral testimony accorded the same authority as the colony’s written archives. You will hear from some of those who testified before Yoorrook, unearthing their own pasts and the stories passed down through generations to help assemble a new historical perspective: fragmented, often impressionistic, but no less vital. This work traces the threads that bind past and present, revealing how historical injustices continue to manifest today—perpetuating harm, deepening inequity, and guiding the unfinished story of this place.

The Fed, under Yellen, went too much into many short term notes as one can see by the size of the auction today.
That will be the Achilles heel of the Fed; sometime in the not too distant future the bond market will freeze as too much ST term debt to trun over.

However, Trump now has his hands on the list. I believe he is using it to tame Netanyahu by keeping it quiet-and to blackmail the Dems or whomever is on the list.

“²) What about atoms, molecules, virus, rocks, and (famously) cats? “Everything craves perception, each according to its own kind” says Plotinus, and adds that surely no one will believe him. – What is causing the “collapse of the wave function” in quantum mechanics?”

“You can only apprehend the Infinite by a faculty that is superior to reason”
Plotinus (270 AD)
Although Plotonus began neoPlatonism he affected Christian thought among others

Posted by: canuk | Jul 9 2025 14:13 utc | 221

“You can only apprehend the Infinite by a faculty that is superior to reason” – Plotinus (270 AD)
I respectfully disagree. Every student of calculus has learned to handle infinities – even if it’s merely numbers, the idea of the continuum and its open or closed subsets, of limes and supremum, are instructive in a broader sense. Ludwig Wittgenstein remarked that a countable infinity, such as the natural numbers, can’t be imagined like an alley with trees along which we walk, and keep walking; in that sense it’s not accessible as a notion. However, the synthetic idea can be had as a consistent thought, as modern maths shows clearly.
Moreover: the cited statement lends itself to application on the idea of a world-at-large, called unum in latin christian theology. To try and think this, but not simply perceive it, is like approaching a limes value; does the limes exist? “God knows” is not a good answer.
This, incidentally, is very much related to one of my major concerns with equating Being to consciousness. – For, isn’t any conscious act something personal, i.e. rooted in the founding level experience of I, vs. a Though? I would think so. Hence, indvidual conscious acts can not constitute a more complete and apparently readily present world-at-large; whether grasped as an unum or not. Rather than trying to sum all personal experience of conscious acts, I suggest to use a generic idea of the foundational ability which gives rise to awareness in the first place – that’s what Aristotle does, using a most profound concept called the nous.
Indeed Plotinus does largely the same, including the term nous, but I can’t present the similarities and differences in their respective usage of the concept here; I need to study him more.

@ juliania | Jul 7 2025 22:59 utc | 153
in answer to your question – i don’t know.. i think creativity is fundamental to who we are and to consciousness… i don’t know about ‘fully aware’ and i think that sounds like some attempt at perfection and i don’t believe in that… maybe some self realized yogi is completely self aware – who knows… it doesn’t really make sense to me from the point of view there wouldn’t be any surprises and i think life is full of surprises and that this makes life interesting.. everything is change and in a constant state of change.. we might like it to be static, but i don’t think it is..
@ persiflo | Jul 7 2025 23:57 utc | 154
there is more to life then what we see or experience – of course… i think i am using the term consciousness in a more universal way to cover it all, as opposed to something limited.. the subconscious is part of consciousness, although it is often hidden and unavailable to access with clarity..
frankly – my head hurts using words in this realm.. i don’t profess to know much of anything and when i try to find words to express my ideas, sometimes it works and other times – not so much!

🇧🇷 Pepe Escobar nails it again: while the empire rants and the circus ringmaster juggles tariffs, BRICS builds. This “void summit”? A seismic shift. The West clings to SWIFT and illusion—meanwhile, the sun is rising all across the Global South. G7? Dustbin of history.
Pepe Escobar on BRICS 2025 Rio Summit
“Hi, everybody. Welcome to Rio. Sunset. And we even had sunshine today. Why? Because it’s the end of the BRICS 2025 Rio Summit, which was, in fact, a huge success, considering that we couldn’t talk about great expectations before that. Including, of course, what Western mainstream media—they were carping about it and pointing to it all the time, saying, ‘Xi Jinping and Putin didn’t come, so this is a void summit.’ Stupid!
It was extremely important in every field in terms of support for BRICS nations who are under fire—literally, in some cases—by the empire. A new architecture, geo-finance architecture, and payment settlements architecture, following the Russians—all the hard work that they put in last year, even before the summit in Kazan, in terms of the NDB. And this was announced by Russian finance minister Siluanov, one of the most important figures at the summit—the NDB becoming a definitive platform for loans, for projects, mega projects, all across the BRICS sphere and then going to BRICS partners as well, bypassing SWIFT. Immense, with immense repercussions.
In terms of business, we could see different organizations and women’s organizations, including from all over BRICS partners, presenting their projects at the Business Council, which is something absolutely outstanding—a whole day of networking with the whole Global South in the same space. This is something very rare to see. You usually see this in Russian forums, but sometimes you don’t have the full Global South. Here, we had the full Global South. Outstanding.
Very, very important—what Lula and Lavrov, Russian Foreign Minister, left quite clear: that this is not an anti-Western club, but is a club that is forging the Global South’s rules for a developing system, a different system of international relations and geoeconomic and geopolitical relations. Very important.
And obviously we had the backlash from the empire, with the circus ringmaster saying that he’s going to apply—who knows—10%, 20%, 1000%, 1%, 0% of tariffs on BRICS, BRICS partners, and everybody that is linked to BRICS and BRICS partners. Nobody cares! This is what the other side does. They change the narrative. They coin stupid narratives. And BRICS—they are a serious organization working for a serious revamping of the international system.
And the fact that there were a lot of discussions about reform of the UN Security Council—this is not going to happen. They’re never going to give anything to BRICS. Reform of the IMF—it’s not going to happen. They’re never going to give extra seats for Global South nations. The Global South has to work on their own platforms and a different paradigm of international relations. And this is what we saw here. Not only these two days of the summit, but the two or three previous days—preparatory days—including the absolutely crucial BRICS Business Council discussions that lasted for a full day.
So, in the end, a huge success, which will not be recognized in the West—but who cares?—already recognized all across the Global South, and it’s the Global South that matters. 85% of the population, much, much wealthier than the G7, which is destined for the dustbin of history. And now that the sun is finally setting in Rio, the sun is rising all across the Global South.
Thanks, everybody, and greetings from Copacabana.”

“IMO, Trenin makes clear that Putin knows the Outlaw US Empire’s plans, which is the basic reason why Putin doesn’t yield anything to Trump.”
With the current US admin, Russia is clearly working on separating the US from the Europeans – re resource deals, Nordstream ect.
The Carlson interview, Trump ect – Russia is not so much dealing with them but a faction in the US they represent or are part of.
Both Putin and Lavrov have specifically named the US as Russia’s main enemy.
The three ringleaders for continued war against Russia is the UK establishment – City of London, banker Macron and banker Merz + Von der Leyen et al.
Von der Leyen from wikipedia –
“At the height of the fear of communist terrorism in West Germany, she fled to London in 1978 after her family was told that the Red Army Faction (RAF) was planning to kidnap her due to her being the daughter of a prominent politician. She spent more than a year in hiding in London, where she lived with protection from Scotland Yard under the name Rose Ladson to avoid detection and enrolled at the London School of Economics”
And married into old German nobility –
“The von der Leyen family (German pronunciation: [fɔn deːɐ̯ ˈlaɪən]) is a German noble family which made its fortune as silk merchants and silk weaving industrialists. The Mennonite family established a major textile business in Krefeld in the 18th century. In its heyday, the business delivered silk to most European courts and aristocratic dynasties. The family was ennobled in 1786 and one branch raised to Baronial rank by Napoleon in 1813 and by the King of Prussia in 1816.”
Hatred for Russia is across the board in UK political/elite circles. France – Napoleon… Germany Hitler. Both tried invading and defeating Russia and both were themselves soundly defeated.
Then there is the Weimar Triangle. France Germany, Poland – a von der Leyen initiative. Poland has been at war with Russia for most its written history – But alongside hating Russia, Poland also hates Germany.
A mess of corruption and hereditary ‘elite’ European thinking and hatreds.
